About this map

Alchesay National Fish Hatchery and the adjacent Chief Alchesay Baha Grave anchor this portion of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation in the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the deep incisions of Bear Canyon and Post Office Canyon, which lead toward the North Fork White River. This reach of the river was central to local life, supporting small operations like Roberts Ranch and Baha Ranch. Cultural depth is evident in the presence of Petroglyphs near the water's edge and several Cem sites. The map records a complex network of unnamed Jeep Trails connecting remote water sources such as Little Round Tap Tank and Cliff Tank, illustrating the reliance on scattered tanks and springs like Columbine Spring across the high plateaus of Alchesay Flat.
